  1. Don't trust AOL. I definitely would not try it, no way in hell. With AOL there is always a catch.

    Last I heard was they was given out antivirus for free, nice? Well, obviously there was a catch.

     

    Tried cancel your AOL account?

    Try that sometime, just try. I dare ya!

  2. Well, any browser can do this by going to "Tools" -> "Options" and disabling cache, cookies, etc.

     

    Also the browser in article uses the IE engine, so it's not a good choice for those who are privacy minded due to the potential risk of getting spyware.

     

    Firefox Portable by default does not save cache.

     

    Firefox also have good privacy protection tool built-in by going "Tools" and click "Clear Private Data".

     

    Torpark a browser based on Firefox Portable with Tor can do anonymous surfing.

     

    I think that the article and Browzar mentioned in the article, seems pretty dumb.

  3. your still getting those?

    those are bots.

    they were getting ppls accounts then just automatically adding them.

    i remember one hack where a guy automatically went on someones friends list when they signed on.

    i was one of the first 400 that got added.

    i kept refreshing the page and it went up like 100/min.

    got up to around 26000 before myspace banned him.

     

    Samy? :D

    I know that guy. :D

  4. Restart Firefox

    It does just as the name implies, it makes a button available that will restart firefox. :D You do have to drag it to your toolbar from view>toolbar>customize.

     

    I know this is the ultimate in laziness. :D

     

    Don't see the point of restarting the browser. Why would I want todo that?

     

     

    TrackMeNot

    is a lightweight browser extension that protects web-searchers against surveillance and data-profiling. It does so not by means of concealment or encryption (i.e. covering one's tracks), but instead, paradoxically, by the opposite strategy: noise and obfuscation. With TrackMeNot, actual web searches, lost in a cloud of false leads, are essentially hidden in plain view. User-installed TrackMeNot works with the Firefox Browser and popular search engines, e.g. AOL, Yahoo!, Google, and MSN, and requires no 3rd-party servers or services.

     

    TrackMeNot

     

    Sounds like an very interesting extension.

  5. I have heard of similar such tools before. You can have for a tool that uses a dictionary, then it randomly combine example 1-5 words and search for them at random intervals.

     

    A fake search every 12 seconds is a bad idea, because it is a static value, so it would be easy to filter out those searches from a potential log file and because it follows a fixed pattern. Much time of surfing web is spent reading, not searching. I think it would be better if the delay between searches was random such as example 10-900 seconds.

     

    In Firefox, I have put my Google cookie to "Allow for session", so that everytime I close Firefox, the cookie gets deleted, and I get a new cookie and id.

  6. Other people are trying hard to get rid of Outlook Express. But you are reinstalling the operating system just to get it to work.

     

    So the question I wonder is...

    Do you use it because;

    A) You are stubborn.

    B) You don't know better.

     

    Most worms spread through Outlook Express. It is very insecure. Tryout Mozilla Thunderbird: http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/

     

    Along with Mozilla Firefox (unless you already do use it).

  7. People on MySpace tend to use the worst color schemes imaginable, yellow text on white background, or something really bad with bad fonts. Pages are very unreadable. Pages tend to be slow, since they have hundreads of images, many of them animated GIF's, background audio, flash and some movies. Pages load slow, and eat much memory in browser and consists of incorrect HTML code.

     

    People there cant spell. You can see lots of use of CAPITAL LETTERS, like if their caps lock key was stuck. Constant use of OMG, ZOMG, WTF, LOL, etc. "i c u lol were r u?? nowai?? zomg!! me n u lol went 2 her <3 LOL".

     

    If retards could fly, MySpace would be an airport.

  8. You can try patch your inherently broken and inferior browser with various third-party software such as STOPzilla or whatever, but it's no good solution.

     

    Get Mozilla Firefox, it comes with included popup blocker that works extremely good, then you can get the 'adblock' extension and block most advertisements too.

  9. I don't have a MySpace account. I never had one. I don't wish or plan to get one. I probably never will get one. I hate it with a passion. ;)

    My opinion is that MySpace is a place that caters to retards and that it is full of dumb people. The linguistic skill of the userbase appears to be terrible.

  10. I just recently bought my first USB flash memory stick a couple of days. I never thought about software especially designed to stealthily copy files from a USB flash drive when inserted, though it did cross my mind when I put backup of my stuff there that maybe it wouldn't be good idea to use it on untrusted machines.

     

    as rridgely said, TrueCrypt is a good software for encrypt files. It can create hidden partitions that are invisible, etc and give plausible deniability.

     

    7-Zip supports AES encryption for archive, maybe that good too.

     

    Hmm, but if the untrusted computer can copy your files, maybe it can have a keylogger logger to log decryption password too?

  11. Many many years ago, I picked up a old 80's hard drive. It was bigger than todays 3?" hard drives. It contained big orange metallic that was very hard, and I tossed them around, and threw them, they was very hard!

    Makes me think of those discs that the Predator uses. :D

     

    It also has powerful magnets.

  12. Maybe that newspaper has some software partners and they want make money?

    Or maybe they intentionally wanted to create some controversy...

     

    Either way, I think that it sucks that people need spy family, friends, partners, etc...

    A little creepy? :D

     

    Getting caught spying = get dumped for being a psychopath.

  13. Yeah, very good voice for a kid of that age.

     

    Mean of judges to pick on clothes and stuff, world is so shallow, everything is skin-deep.

     

    Annoying with all french who post french comments and apparently believe everybody knows their language. Should be banned imho.

  14. Yes, you should use Eraser, that was built from the ground to the top with the only goal of secure erasing.

     

    CCleaner recently had the secure deletion feature added, it was never intended for this. See the secure deletion future in CCleaner as a bonus. It's nice to have, but if you're serious then you get a dedicated secure eraser built with the sole intention of secure erasing, such as Eraser.
